Cluster Munitions Hit Russian Tank, Crew Dismounts

This helmet cam purportedly shows the perspective of a Russian tanker in a column somewhere in the Kreminna forest, Ukraine. He is riding in the turret when his tank is hit by incoming Ukrainian cluster munitions.


Although the crew survives, they are forced to dismount the tank. They flee into the woods, though there doesn't seem to be any indication regarding the fate of the tank ahead of theirs in the column. The impression of these tankers on their own, in the woods, in that gray half-light, waiting to get nailed by cluster munitions has all the hallmarks of a horror movie, and to them, it probably is.
